Summary
Ben Levesque is a Chief Engineer with 12 years of hands-on experience in systems modeling, controls development, and embedded electronics for automotive and prototype electric vehicles. He specializes in Simulink/Matlab model-based design and ANSI C controller implementation, having delivered traction, roll-angle, ride-height, and torque-distribution controllers for a six-wheel autonomous vehicle and steering-effort electronics for a Corvette C6R. At Pratt Miller he progressed from systems engineer to electronics manager and now leads engineering efforts, blending vehicle-level propulsion and energy storage selection with low-level actuator and pump model correlation and testing. Known for bridging simulation and hardware, he pairs circuit design and embedded firmware with rigorous test correlation to drive production-ready systems. Based in Lyon Charter Township, MI, he holds a BS in Electrical Engineering from Michigan State University and brings a pragmatic focus on integrating complex control algorithms into reliable vehicle subsystems.
